Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 on GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU
Yes. The GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU meets Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024's recommended spec. We estimate ~58 fps at 1080p high (range 46–69, medium confidence, ±20%), GPU-limited. For 60 fps at 1080p, use the medium preset. The cheapest current card for 60 fps at 1080p high is the Arc A770 8GB (~61 fps). Model estimate, not measured; data updated 2026-09-24.
Estimated FPS by preset
| Preset | 1080p | 1440p | 4K |
|---|---|---|---|
| low | 98 | 69 | 41 |
| medium | 75 | 53 | 32 |
| high | 58 | 40 | 24 |
| ultra | 46 | 32 | 19 |
Estimated FPS from our model (v0), based on the game's published requirements and relative GPU/CPU performance. Not measured. Real results vary with drivers, patches, and scenes. Values above 300 fps show as 300+. Data updated 2026-09-24.
Best settings
- 60 fps at 1080p: medium preset
- 60 fps at 1440p: low preset
- 144 fps at 1080p: not reachable
NVIDIA RTX card: turn on DLSS in quality mode before dropping the preset; FSR and XeSS also work if the game lacks DLSS.
What limits performance
- Estimates above: GPU-limited, assuming a processor fast enough not to hold the GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU back.
- Processor needed for ~58 fps: Core i3-9100F or faster (slowest current desktop CPU our model expects to keep up).
- With the recommended CPU (Ryzen 7 2700X): still GPU-limited at 1080p high, ~58 fps.
Video memory
- GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU: 8 GB
- The publisher lists no video memory requirement.
